WASHINGTON, D.C. — Orlando City has dropped three straight games since its 4-1 win in Montreal three weeks ago. The team has conceded 12 goals over those three games, and has scored just four times. The Lions' chances of making the playoffs are fading fast.
The overwhelming theme of the season for the Lions has centered around one thing: deficient defending.
Things were no different in Saturday night’s 4-1 loss to D.C. United, a team that Orlando City entered the game tied with in the standings. The loss puts did serious damage to the club's playoff push heading into Toronto next for a quick turnaround with the game on Wednesday.
